And for you unfortunate folks with firewalls:

To get your system talking to a Jetdirect equipped network printer through a
firewall, you need to allow:

The TCP data port (default is TCP port 9100) to go from the 3000 to the
printer
SNMP queries on UDP ports 161 and 162
Some firewalls (and some security policies) may have problems with allowing
SNMP - in which case you can turn it off in the NPCONFIG file entry for the
printer (snmp_enabled = FALSE), but no printer status checking will work.
